From the internationally bestselling author of Firekeeper's Daughter comes an explosive story about seeking justice for a past that won't let you go.
Seventeen-year-old Lucy Smith is on the run. Years of hell as an Ojibwe child in foster care have taught her to be smart, cautious. But when the kind-eyed Mr. Jameson tracks her down and shows interest in her case, Lucy begins to wonder if things could be different.
Still, you can’t escape the past, no matter how fast you are. Soon Lucy is under investigation with the police. She knows she can clear her name from the chaos that has followed her everywhere, but saving the people she loves could cost Lucy her life.

Boulley has written another great entry into the Firekeeper saga? I really loved this one - Lucy has really been through it and I'm glad she found Daunis and Jamie. This is really hard to put down and gives lots of good info about Native adoption issues without being didactic.
ALSO: I was super thrilled to find that this was set in Mt. Pleasant, MI and I found that Boulley got all of the details right. (Of course, I think she lived there for some time!) It was thrilled for me as a former Mid-Michigan resident who spent a lot of time at CMU and in Mt. Pleasant.
